What if all the Buttsayers are correct, and 20 years from now all of us are the lower class, subjugated and forced to feed the original bit miners Hostess cupcakes and sausages-on-a-stick

Also isn't is true that Bitcoin was invented by an unknown person under an alias? Lmao, that means even if it succeeds and becomes the world's only currency, the original creator could spring up like a villain and reveal he controls half of the world's money. That's good sci fi and it's going to come true.

yeah but then all the miners could agree to hard fork and the rest of the world leaves him high and dry

edit: except he could try to buy off enough miners to prevent the hard fork. nice plot twist there

The new world order is awesome, can't wait to get rid of all this government corruption and get back to just regular assholes like you and me doing the corruption instead.

Uhh if this is true this is huge & hosed up:

https://www.washingtonpost.com/news...m=.bad4eab7ea6e

quote:

German researchers have found about 1,600 files of non-financial data, some of which link to or contain child pornography and other objectionable material, on the system that stores bitcoin transactions.

The discovery could place certain users of the bitcoin network in legal jeopardy, the researchers said, and could pose an obstacle for greater adoption and mainstream acceptance of bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. Bitcoin “miners” and people who have volunteered to use their computers to maintain the network may be liable for the possession of illegal content, the researchers said. But people who own and trade bitcoin but don't participate in the bitcoin network are not directly affected.
